Hello all!


I actually ordered one of those iPads as well! I found this website when I was searching for others regarding the same deal. I got a shipment delayed email last night, but an hour ago I got a shipment confirmation with the digital items! There seems to be hope for those in limbo still!

I ordered may 18th. Hopefully mine ships within 5 days if that’s how far back they are on orders
I hope they do to! I want everyone who managed to order it to have the order honored. Its such a good deal (provided it comes in good shape)!

To answer your other question, yes!

I ordered evening of the 18th as well. I keep obsessively checking the status but it still says "Reserving item" for both my orders (mkb & iPad). Hopefully I see some movement next week! I wonder how they're allocating them... from a warehouse or from stores that are moving them around?

I will for sure!

I ordered it around 3am in the morning on May 14th.

ordered mine on 14th too

and the 2x 12.9 MKB on 15th

hopefully some good news today.. we'll see tho

edit- interestingly the pending charge for the MKB has dropped but still see the total for the 12.9 iPad. Maybe because the keyboard is further backed up

Dunno if iPad charge dropped off and was re-added or always pending, but hopefully that's a good sign

I actually ordered a refurbished 12.9" MKB as well on May 19th incase I got the iPad. Its been under "Reserved" so far, but supposedly it just means they are reserving it from the next stock shipment that they expect. Hopefully it completely goes through!

Edit: My iPP order charge from Best Buy had dropped from my CC when I last checked yesterday, but I imagine it has/will return now.

Strange none of my orders show reserved and I got the iPad ordered at like 6am on the 18th.

I think reserved is further back in the queue than 'delayed shipping' or a shipment estimate date (which will probably change if it hasn't yet shipped)

Yeah, we'll see what happens. I still have both pending charges but maybe that's because I ordered just a few days ago. Once yesterday the "Make shipping changes" button under "Details" went yellow, but otherwise I can't cancel, make shipping changes, or pick up in store.

Well, I got a 12.9 Magic keyboard on the 18th @ 6 am. It says shipped but I can't track it until ups provides tracking info. Also, it says arriving by Tuesday. Will update when possible...

That's awesome! I'm worried mine will go from reserving to cancelled, but here's to hoping. It seems like status goes reserving --> delayed (if it's past the expected date) --> shipping. Seems like delayed is actually progress beyond reserving, haha. :) We'll see. I'm so anxious about it -- waiting is the hardest part!

Mine never went into reserved. Mine straight up went from delivers tomorrow to delayed
